"Opened in Inman Park in 2022 as the first brick-and-mortar iteration of the famed airport fine-dining concept that doesn’t require a TSA pat-down, One Flew South offers an expansive patio facing the Eastside Trail and a menu from culinary director Todd Richards that nods to Atlanta’s Southern-and-global identity—highlights include tandoori chicken skewers with watermelon salad, a lobster omelet, and a smash burger with black truffle ketchup." - ByMike Jordan
"Running things in the airport since 2009, the Asian and Southern fusion restaurant has long had people reconfiguring their flight schedules for a taste of their internationally-famous dishes. While the restaurant has seen a change of guard over the years, it’s still owned by Jackmont Hospitality and helmed by Chef Todd Richards. And now their new location on the Beltline gives Atlantans a pass (without a boarding pass) to pop in for their popular sushi rolls, cold noodle salad, and first-class service. Plus, you can swap the luggage-wielding Hartsfield travelers for the rollerbladers whipping by on the trail outside." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams, jacinta howard
"For years, One Flew South was the only reason to head to the Atlanta airport hours ahead of departure time. Now, a new location on the BeltLine pedestrian trail means you don’t need a boarding pass for their first-class service and for the city's best soul food- and Asian-fusion dishes, like collard green ramen and black rice pudding. Plus, while the outdoor patio overlooking the busy trail is prime seating, the interior is just as inviting. With floor-to-ceiling imagery of trees and actual trees from the BeltLine just outside, the big oblong bar at the center feels, wonderfully, like it’s been dropped into the middle of a forest." - team infatuation
"For years, the internationally famous One Flew South in Terminal E was the only reason for us to head to the airport hours ahead of our departure time. Now with a BeltLine location, we don’t need a boarding pass for the signature first class service at the popular Asian-fusion restaurant, where we’d feel comfortable taking a date or hanging with coworkers for bites of the popular sushi rolls and cold noodle salad. While the outdoor seating, overlooking the busy BeltLine trail, is prime seating, the interior is just as inviting. The big oblong bar at the center feels like it’s been dropped into the middle of a forest with floor-to-ceiling imagery of trees and actually trees and nature from the BeltLine just outside." - Nina Reeder
"A new outpost of the airport restaurant was opened on the Eastside Beltline trail by the chef in partnership with Jackmont Hospitality Group; the site sits next to Shake Shack and occupies the former Hazel Jane’s wine bar space that had at one point been planned for a different Japanese soul food concept. The chef also serves as culinary director for Jackmont Hospitality." - Beth McKibben
